Finished version of the 5 bases by artist K_MB001 I found on @yellomagoo ‘s blog
now that I finally have the histories up, I can tell the hands. Each hand is from some one who heavily influenced their life.
Meris Kilana
Meris Aracelia/Kilana: Seladrine Drow circle of the sea Druid/ Fey wanderer (dark urge)
Right side of his face is Gale’s hand. Gale is his main love interest and helped Meris find something to fight for and to smile again for. Meris likes teasing his awkward Wizard,.
Left side of his face is Madla’s hand, while she is stuck in another realm, she still visits and tries to guide and listen to Meris in his dreams. She’s who inspired him to be a sea/storm Druid.
The hand around his neck is Adora. She ended one chapter of his life, changed the trajectory to something more sinister and set him up as a pseudo bhaalspawn. Her soul still fights against his own.
Muere was a fellow Bhaalspswn and his lover while he ran the temple of Bhaal. He was the reason that Meris wasn’t completely taken over by adora’s soul to be the choosen that Bhaal wanted. He also was the one that got Meris away from Orin, while Muere wasn’t completely able to rescue Meris, it at least started Meris’s journey to well save Faerun.
the last hand is Rosella, a poor nature spirit who just loved Meris and if everything had worked out probably would have been his future wife. She’s who he sees as the dream guardian, one of his biggest regrets. He wished she had survived.

Morin Delyl/Caedus
Morin Delyl/Caedus: Mephistopheles tiefling cosmic (sometimes wild) sorcerer. Dark urge Starting with the hand on the left side of his face, one of the love’s of his life and his childhood friend. He owes Coven for saving Kaden and presumably keeping her safe from him while he was off being Dark urge. When he gains his memories back, Morin often thinks about him.
The hand on his right side is his sibling’s Kaden. Kaden never doubted Morin and knew something was wrong. They wanted to believe him, and went around learning everything they could to find him again. In some versions they meet again on the nautiloid. In others Kaden is still searching, and sent his future best friend lora to track him down.
next hand, and the hand around his neck is Matari, the devil who ended everything by seducing Tanith into making a deal. The devil who still hunts to find his prey, and wants Morin’s power.
hand around his wrist is Tanith, the girl who couldn’t handle the fact Morin hadn’t chosen her and set the whole downfall of the town.
last hand (the hand on his shoulder) is Shadowheart. His chance at love again and who brought out happiness in him. They both struggle with dark gods

Muninn Cephei
Muninn Cephei- half elf (fey/noble eldarin) half aasmir cosmic archfey Sorlock.
the hand on his head is Mizar. Mizar was his first love and who taught him the most about the world outside of the feywilds. He would have been happy to settle down with mizar but rebellion and sickness forced them apart and muninn had to leave him behind to keep him safe.
the hand near his ear is Draven, his father. He hopes he can be just as good of a partner to someone as his dad. Muninn gets his love of music from his dad and his quiet loyalty plus his wings. the next hand is Yue. Muninn is a lot like his mother. They are both prone to adventure. Both sassy when they need to be and both keep collecting fluffy animals. She is also his patron and guides him when she can.
the hand not his over his chest is Astarion’s. The eventual love of his life. They had some rocky moments but both worked on really letting some one in. Muninn helped him break the cycle of abuse and Astarion helped muninn to open up again, that not everyone he loved (not family) would leave. the last hand and the hand touching his shoulder is his younger sister Hati. Muninn was made to be a big brother. While it was technically Mani that made him a big brother the two were close enough in age Morin carried for him like a sibling but they were almost two halves of a whole. Hati was the first time he held one of his siblings and vowed he would be the best bigger brother and protect them. She represents all of his younger siblings. ———
Vanna Arel
Vanna Arel- Mephistopheles tiefling/ gold dragon ancestry. Selune tempest cleric. Dark urge
The hand on the left side covering his eye is Orin’s. She represents the temple of Bhaal and the burying of his emotions and personality. At only being the chosen Bhaal wanted. She also represents being freed from that long nightmare and getting to Vanna again. The hand over his head is Theneiros, theneiros is probably his best friend and one of the loves of his life. He represents loyalty and freedom to Vanna as theneiros was the first one he met on the nautiloid. The two keep dancing around each other but are both too dominant. Still the two care for each other and are extremely close.
the hand around his other eye is Mai. His twin and other half he misses her every day and wished she could have made it to adulthood. He hopes after death she went to Selune instead of Bhaal. Some times it feels like she’s watching him. Her hand hints at what she could have become if she hadn’t died.
the hand against his neck is Astarion. Astarion is his main love interest they both learned how to stop the circle of violence and abuse together and learned to open up to each other and what really they need in life. While he doesn’t always agree with Astarion’s choices he values that Astarion always has his back even if the elf disagrees.
the hand on his wrist is karlach, his other best friend. She’s one of the only ones that actually took him warning them about the urges seriously and promised to help him. She works as his moral compass and stops him if he gets too into bloodlust. He is glad she found theneiros. They often girl gossip with each other.

Kouhua Ren
Kouhua ren: Mephistopheles tiefling. College of the moon bard hexblade warlock.
the hand on top of her head is En’s. He was her family and basically her pseudo parent. He was everything Hua inspired to be and she hopes with everything he is safe.
the hand on the side of her face is her best friend Ali. They had small crushes on each other but were mostly good friends and they cherished that connection more. She could tell Ali everything. She hopes En is looking after him and Ali found someone to love. Ali is the form the emperor takes or well close to it.
The hand on the right side belongs to Din. She sees him as a little brother and thanks him for rescuing her and giving her a home when she lost hers.
the hand on her wrist is judal’s. They are her spirit and have been with her as long as she can remember. He chose her out of all her family members to fuse with. He shows up as the second set of her horns and her wings. He’s a bit miffed at having to share space with a tadpole but he always has hua’s back. He is also where her hexblade powers come from.
the last hand is Scheria. Technically her sister in law Scheria helped raise Hua. They are extremely close and Scheria taught Hua how to fight and helped build her confidence up. She looks up to Scheria a lot and loves her very much.
